I loved the sense of community that I felt from the moment I stepped on campus for my interview. All of the students that I met were interested in me and my goals and were passionate about Fuqua and its community. In talking to students and alumni, it was clear that the community embodied everything that I was looking for: authentic, humble, brilliant people who genuinely want to make a positive impact in the world. Of course, Duke basketball also helped influence my decision.
I worked in sales and management for a variety of industries. While I loved managing people and the thrill of closing a sale, I was drawn to the strategic side of the business and wanted to continue to grow my skill set and business acumen.
I will be joining McKinsey & Company full-time as a consultant and aim to work primarily with healthcare companies.
My classmates are some of the kindest and most enthusiastic people that I have ever met. I knew that they would be smart and have professional successes, but I never imagined how nice a group of high-achieving people could be. They are committed to advancing social causes and helping improve society, but also care about helping each other be successful in academics and recruiting.
